THE FIRST TASTE
Learned to Drink Coffee When a Baby
If parents realized the (act that
coffee contains a drug-caffeine
which is especially harmful to chil
dren, they would doubtless hesitate
before giving the babies coffee to
drink.
"When I was a child In my moth
er's arms and first began to nibble
things at the tabje, mother used to
give me Bips of coffee. As my parents
used coffee exclusively at meals I nev
er knew there was anything to drink
but coffee and water.
"And so I contracted the coffee
habit early. I remember when quite
young, the continual use of coffee BO
affected my parents that they tried
roasting wheat and barley, then
ground it in the coffee-mill, as a sub
stitute for coffee.
"But it did not taste right and
then went back to coffee again. That
was1 long before Postum waa ever
heard of. I continued to use coffee
until I was 27, and when I got into
office work, I began to have nervous
spells. Especially after breakfast I
was so nervous I could scarcely at
tend to my correspondence.
"At night, after having coffee for
supper, I could hardly sleep, and on
rising In the morningwould feel weak
and nervous. ' .
"A friend persuaded me to try Pos
tum. My wife and I did not like lt at
first, but later when boiled good end
Ettong it was fine. Now we would
not give up Postum for the best coffee
we ever tasted.
"I can now get good sleep, am free
from nervousness and headaches. I
recommend Postum to all coffee drink?
ers.

" The Ideal Farmer.
The' intelligent farmer doesn't get
his enlightenment while munching
crackers and cheese at the village
store. No, indeed, he makes a study
during his quiet moments-of each
problem as it comes up, and he never
lets jp until the tnlng is solved to his
own satisfaction. It is such men as
these, with an abundant amount of
grit and determination, that make a
success of their calling.
Thc Farm is the Place.
If the girl or boy on the farm really
understood how much the good old
farm really stands for, and the grave
mistake which they make in ever leav
ing it, it ls very doubtful if so many
would leave and take up life in the
cities and towns. We are gladto say,
however, that this erroneous idea that
a young man or a young lady can do
better in the cities is fast _ losing
ground, and we fully believe that be
fore long it will be entirely wiped
out.-Weekly Witness.
Thickening a Clover Stand.
Where last season's seeding-'of clov
er has made only a partial' stand, some
work must be done pretty soon now tu
strengthening the stand. A partial
stand of clover ls about as difficult to
handle as a partial stand of corn, for
one diplikes to lose whatever percent
age of st?nd has been secured. In the
first plac?, don't turn under even one
fourth, of a stand. If your soil is rath
er heavy, sow your fresh seed early so
-that the feed will work down into the
crevices when early rains and late
snows will cover it. On light soils the
seed should be covered by harrowing,
and it should be done later in the sea
son. With a very thin stand I would
sow from four to six pecks of early
oats and cut it off for hay.-L. C.
Brown.
Fresh Blood in Corn.
One of the^ best corn growers in
Central Illinois tells me he buys each
section several bushels of the best
bred seed corn he can get and mixes it
with his own seed. This practice has
been kept up for several years, and
whether or not the good results are due
to the infusion of the fresh blood there
is surely a question here welt worth
studying. This grower has always se
lected the big, mature ears for seed,
those ears which were somewhat coarse
and which would n?t stand much of
a show in a score card contest. Then,
by introducing the finely finished ears
from another reliablt vorn "breeder he
has succeeded In keeping his corn
much above the average size ears, and
with a fine finish over top and butt,
which in Itself is a high bred charac
teristic. Corn growers usually get
the'*- entire seed supply when they
start out to improve the corn. The
method of this one grower in using
home grow:i seed as his foundation
and introducing fresh seed of the same
variety from another grower is inter
esting and well worth following np.
L. C. Browr...
Getting a Good Stand of Grain.
If lhere is anything which will give
a farmer a genuine attack of blues it is
tc" be compiled to work throughout
with only a partial
get
is not fully realized
to do anything. The way lo get a"
stand is to use live, vigorous seed; get
it in the ground under right conditions
and then be prepared to keep the
stand as nearly perfect as possible
over the whole field. What blind faith
many have in a kernel of c*rd. If
every corn grower would test his seed
corn accurately before he starts to
plr.nting and then deposit the seed
grain just deep enough to attract
moisture to start growth he would
have no trouble about the stand. When
it comes to oats, barley or wheat good
seed is just as important as good seed
corn. Heavy, bright seed is always
best. Then you can't do too much
work on the seed bed. Put in good and
you will have a much better show for
an even stand.-L. C. Brown, in Tri
bune Farmer.
Green Forage for Hogs.
A timely bulletin has just been is
sued from the Missouri Experiment sta
tion by Dean H. J. Waters, giving the
results of some experiments to deter
mine the value of different forage
crpps for hogs.
Thirty-six pigs weighing about fifty
, pounds each were fed in lots on differ
ent forage crops in connection with
corn until they were ready for market,
accurate account being kept of the
cost of gains made.
In cheapness of gains, the feeds used
ranked as follows: Corn and skim
milk, cheapest; corn ar.;.' alfalfa, sec
ond; corn and red clover, third; corn
and bluegrass, fourth; corn and rape,
fifth; corn and ship stuff, sixth. ?
A saving of about 75 cents a hundred
in the cost of gain was effected by
using green clover instead of fresh
bluegrass. A saving of $1 "a hundred
was effected by using alfalfa instead of
bluegrass.
When it is realized that alfalfa comes
on early, and when properly clipped
stays green all summer, and until the
very hard freezes of early winter, its
Importance a sa hog pasture is appar
ent. Clover yields more forage per
acre than bluegrass, and as shown by
these experiments haB a much higher
feeding value. It is of the utmost im
portance therefore to provide this sort
of pasture for hogs rather than to re
quire them to run on a bluegrass pas
ture, or even worse than bluegrass, a
timothy pasture, or even far worse
than this, tb Confine them in a dry lot
in the summer time.
This bulletin recommends a succes
sion of crops for profitable hog pas
ture.
Gre?:n Manuring.
Green manuring is much talked
about but little practiced, except inci
dentally.
Clover crops are too valuable to be
plowed into the soil; it pays better to
feed the clover to the stock and use
the manure for enriching the land.
The incidental method of green ma
nuring is to plow under a sod after a
crop has been taken off.
G'een crops are plowed under in the
fall or In the spring; but spring plow*
lng gives a little tho best results, When
\t2 plowing uniter of a crop takes
plate In this tall lhar-,? ls a consider
..b!A ntyrnnfapfi Af nJ;rn?5? loat bafofft
0MEANDACBE5?
the roots of the plants get at it in the
spring.
Any sod that is turned under in the
spring should be plowed but shallow,
so that the soft vegetable matter will
decay quickly and furnish plant food
to the newly started plants, whose
roots are near the surface of the soil.
Green manuring helps sandy land by
making it more retentive of moisture
and by adding humus and plant food.
Green manuring helps clayey land
by making it more open and letting rn
the air. The decaying vegetable mat
ter also produces acids that operate on
the chemical plant foods to render
them available.
Green manuring helps to make
chemical fertilizers more quickly avail
able, especially the ground rock phos
phates.
The efforts of gree shrdltau oetaoln
The effects of green manuring are
sometimes destroyed by putting on at
the same time too much caustic lime,
which combines with the carbon of the
decaying vegetable matter.-The Epi
tomlst.
Farm Facts and Fancies.
Hogs need clean, pure water as much
as the rest of the stock. See that
they get it.
Perhars you do not not realize lt,
but the dearest animal on your fawn
ls the cheap scrub.
Which do you keep? Thc cow that
makes more than she eats or the cow
that eats more than she makes?
It ls Impossible to plant an orchard
or a windbreak in the winter time, but
it is possible and profitable to plan one
or both.
Fungous diseases and insect pests
can be kept from taking the profits of
the orchard this next season by faith
ful, judicious spraying.
An argument in favor of the open
head In fruit trees is that the fruit on
such trees does not rot so badly as that
,. on trees with dense heads.
The five to eight quarts of milk a
day cow will never return the farmer
an adequate profit, unless the per
centage of butter fat ls high.
First the framework, then the trim
mings. So with stock-raising. Feed lo
get the biggest kind of growth, then
lay on the fat as fast as possible.
A dalry cow must be given more feed
than just enough for her own support
If she is to be relied upon to give any
thing for the support of her owner.
The conditions under which the pigs
are kept has as much to do with deter
mining the quality of pork which will
be produced as has the quality of the
Tood.
If there is anything that makes a
disreputable outfit it is an old flea-bit
ten horse hitched to a rattletrap of a
buggy, when the occupant of the buggy
uses for a robe a patched quilt.
In cultivating the plum and cherry
orchards remember that It must be
shallow enough to avoid breaking the
roots, for the broken roots send up
shoots that- suck the life of the tree.
RAILWAY IMPROVEMENT.
First Notable Example of Regard for
the Appearance of Things.
In this country the first notable ex
ample of regard for the appearance of
??hii&^P,11^ the line was furnished by
>^aajQxIn the middle
. Jff?8n?1!38KH|e?was
i'keeprng with the excep
uraSEFThorough organization of the
company's service, the manifest aim
in these improvements was to have
everything along the line present
what along the seaboard is known as
a "shipshape" appearance-that is, to
bear a neat, trim, and well-groomed
look, as on a ship, where the decks
are kept immaculately holystoned, the
woodwork freshly scraped or painted,
the brasses polished, the ropes coiled,
etc. Such conditions on shipboard
are marks of discipline, good repair,
and general efficiency. So on a rail
way, where in similar ways attention
is given to good appearance, public
confidence In safe and competent
management is promoted. Therefore,
just as the good mechanic takes care
to make his joints well fitting and his
lines good, so on this model railway
the nicest attention was given to a
thoroughly well-ordered appearance of
all the work about and near the
tracks. For instance, the crossties
are squarely cut at an exactly uniform
distance from the rails, on the road
bed the ballast is bordered by clel
and regular lines, the yards are kept
scrupulously clean and clear of all
rubbish, and about the stations and
other buildings the turf if nicely main
tained. In this case, however, until
recently little attention has ever been
given to really artistic character; the
way-stations, as a rule, are not archi
tectural; in the way of adornment
some sparse flower beds represent
good intention rather than achieve
ment.
Two diverse methods are exempli
fied in our forms of railway embellish
ment. One is governed by the princi
ple that ornament should be developed
from the character of the thing orna
mented; that while general principles
may be laid down for guidance, their
application must be modified accord
ing to the circumstances attending
each particular problem. What would
be admirable in one place might prove
wholly out of keeping in another.
The second method has found a wider
acceptance. This proceeds with the
assumption that ornament consists in
something pretty, something decora
tive; that applying this prettiness to
things makes them beautiful.
The former method was adopted for
the first railway line in the United
States where a comprehensive at
tempt at artistic treatment was made.
The results have been so beautiful, so
wholly admirable, and withal so truly
economical in maintenance, that it
seems remarkable that the example
has not been more widely followed.
From Sylvester Baxter's "The Rail
way Beautiful" in the Century.

and grow into trees! The squirrels
get their share, and you get yours,
and even those that decay under the

Variety At Sea.
For variety at sea, once when we
had been practicing with the six-inch
guns, and were "securing" for dinner
hour, we saw a monster spouting off
our starboard beam. We begged to
take a shot at lt, and the officer of
the deck, recognizing an impromptu
target, gave us leave. We fired two
shots, and the expression, "a .-^a o?
blood," which I had always looked
upon as an extravagance of speech,
became a reality. When we returned
from mess the ocean for a_.mile sur
rounding the whole was as red-well,
as red as blood-From "Three Years

The Reward of Head-Work.
For several days the policeman on
the beat had observed a small boy
who spent most of his time lounging
near "a downtown street crossing, and
seemed to have nothing to do. One
morning he accosted him.
"Tommy," he said, "or whatever
your name is, you do entirely too
much loafin' 'round here. Hadn't you
better be at home?"
"I ain't loafin'." indignantly replied
the boy. "I got a reg'lar job here."
"You've got a job? What is it?"
"De guy wot owns dis store pays
me a dollar a week for keepin' dis
crossin' swept clean."
"But I never see you doing any
work," said the policeman.
"Course not," returned the boy. "I
take de money, an' let out de job fur
fifty cents a week to de kid wot's out
dere swcepln' de crossin' now. He gits
his pay reg'lar an' don't have to do no

School Messenger.
The Umbrella in the East.
The first Englishman to carry an
umbrella was one Hanway, who lived
at the end of the eighteenth century.
He was regarded as an eccentric in
dividual, but before he died, in 178C,
the fashion h<? set was adopted by so
ciety in general. Hanway was not the
originator of the umbrella. Among the
Greeks and Romans some such article
was very common, though lt was re
garded as a purely feminine append
age, and one which men might never
condescend to adopt. But all over the
East the umbrella has for generations
been well known as an insignia of
power and royalty. On the sculptured
remains of Egyptian temples one sees
representations of kings going in pro
cession with umbrellas carried over
their heads. Even in India to-day
some of the great maharajahs still
call themselves "JLords of the Umbrel
la," and In an address presented by
the king of Burma to the viceroy of
India in 1855, the British representa
tive is described as the "monarch who
reigns over the great umbrella-wear
ing chiefs of the East." One has only
to walk through the streets of any In
dian town to-day to see how important
a social distrinctlon the umbrella has
become.^ For a native to go without
an umbrella in the streets of Calcut
ta, for instance, ls practically a mark
of degradation.-The Boy's World.
Plant Which Catches Flies.
One of the'most curious and inter
esting plants known is the Pinguicula
Caudata. The name is as long as the
plant is small, but what it lacks in
size it manages to make up in other
ways. It is a very modest looking lit
tle plant, with pretty leaves and a
very pretty flower. But in spite of its
modest looks and small size, it is a
terrible scourge to all insects, for it
has all the sticky qualities of fly
paper, and whenever a thoughtless
fly or insect lights on the leaves it is
never able to get away again, for the
sticky substance holds it tight.
As the insects pass this little plant
they are tempted by its inviting ap
pearance to rest on Its pretty leaves
and smooth down their wings awhile.
But when this little fly-catcher once
gets them on its leaves, it holds them
there until they are all absorbed, for
insects are part of the food which
goes to enrich the constitution of this
strange little plant. When the leaves
are covered with insects the little
plant thrives and flourishes.
This natural Insect-catcher would
certainly be a great boom in many
houses that ?re troubled with mosqui
toes and flies, for if a few of the lit
tle plante were placed about the room,
their leaves would soon attract all the
little buzzing pests that are so bother
some during the hot weather.-By
Greta Bryar.
, Kitty Clover's Mistake.
Where was Kitty Clover? Nobody
knew. The children had raced up
stairs and down, all round the yard,
and ail over tho neighborheed, and
they had como back from each search
with sorrowful faces and heavy
hoartfi, The paper boy, tfta latter
carrier, the milkman, the butcher, the
grocer's clerk, and the man that came
to repair the telephone, all were be
sieged by a chorus of eager, question
ing voices; but not one of them had
seen anything of a little gray kitten
"the most beautiful little gray kitten
that ever was seen"-Which had two
white spots-"the cunningest white
spots"-on its tail.
"Where was Kitty Clover? It was
nearly time for the day governess to
come; but Doris, and Rena, and Mar
tha, and Hubert were not at the win
dow watching for her, as they usual
ly were. No; they were running about
the garden and the lawns, with fre
quent trips to the stables, calling in
the most loving tones:
"Kitty, Kitty Cloverf Kitty Clover!
Come, Kitty Clover!"
Finally they had to go in the house
and up to the schoolroom, for Miss
Allis, the governess, had come. Of
course, she wa? told all about the lost
kitten and, of course, she felt very
sorry about it; But she cheered them
up, and told them she hadn't a doubt
but that Kitty Clover would be found;
and so they began their lessons feel
ing quite comforted.
But even during the geography les
son, Doris could not help leaning over
the highbacked seat father had put
in the schoolroom ("out of regard for
the children's backs," he said) and
whispering to Martha, "Do you sup
pose we'll find her?"
Right in the middle of the example
which Miss Allis was explaining,
Bee-the housemaid-peeped in, and
beckoned to the governess.
Miss Allis came back smiling, and
told the children to follow her very
softly.
What could it be? The little pro
cession, led by Bee, tiptoed along the
hall. At the door of a guest cham
ber, which had been occupied the
night before by a friend of father's,
who had gone away on an early morn
ing train, Bee stopped, and held up
a warning hand.
There on the marble washstand
crouched the missing kitten. She ap
peared to be listening intently, while
her eyes were fixed on the hole in
the bottom of the bowl. She did not
look round when the children drew
near.
Miss Allis put her ear down to the
bov \ and a faint gurgling was dis
tinctly heard.
"She thinks there is a mouse there,"
she said. How the children laughed
then. As if mice would be running
round through the water-pipes! What
a funny mistake Kitty Clover had
made!-Emma C. Dowd, in The Sun
beam.
WAY OUT AT SEA.
There the Sailor Gets the Hardest
Work of All.
The life of a seaman is not lived en
tirely in port. When cruising out on
the broad ocean we steer clear from
the tracks laid for the mail silfos,
choosing a pathless waste where there
is uninterrupted target range. I should
like to write of 37 days out of sight
of land, just cruising, and drilling as a
long cruise, but when I hear sailor
men telling tales of more than a year
afloat on an old wind-jammer I am
ashamed to mention it; although I can
not leave off wondering where all the
blue comes from. Has the ocean drunk
from the heavens until they have
grown pale, or Is the sky merely a
mirror of the ocean's sapphire?
In the calmest weather there are al
ways great blue swells far out at sea,
so blue, so free from whitecaps that
one requires but slight imagination,
by looking through half-closed lids, to
see great rolling meadows of gentians.
This is where all the pretty little for
malities of port life are laid aside
Ihe moment the anchor iz on deck, the
ship's flag and the union jack are fold
ed away, and their staffs taken down,
while simultaneously with their lower
ing an ensign mounts to the gaff and
the admiral's flag shrinks on the main
truck.
It is at sea we get in our hard work,
and there is so much of it that half of
the crew (200 men) are always on
duty.
If for the cruise you are chosen as a
helmsman, you arc exempt from sea
watch, deck work, etc.
It isn't a bit jolly to stand a trick
at the wheel; it is two hours on and
four hours off, day and night. Not a
word dare you speak and the presence
of an officer nearby makes a stolen
smoke impossible. Were a choice of
fered, I would say give me a mid
watch aloft in a storm In preference,
for there, when the night is cold, al
though it is not so written in the reg
ulations) a peculiar perking at a sig
nal halyard tells you that a can of hot
coffee is on the way, and when it

Cape Codders in Winter.
The Cape Cod newspapers now in
terest more than ever the fellow who
knows something about the cape and
the islands. They begin to teem with
little paragraphs about Cape Cod
folks who have been away for the
winter, either at work or visiting, and
who have dodged the bleak winds of
the winter time. Now they are be
ginning to go home again, and the
papers record their arrival. Some
have been to Boston. Here and there
one has been to New York. A throng
has been right here in Brockton, the
most popular of the Massachusetts cit
ies for the Cape residents.
These moving native Capo Codders
get five or six months at home, enjoy
themselves hugely and in many cases
pick up a good bit of money-, and
when fall comes are hale and hearty
and crowded perhaps in the pocket
book. Then during the winter they
have just as good a time in the large
towns and the cities as the rest of us
do.-Brockton Enterprise.

HAD BAD ITCHING HUMOR.
Limbs Below the Knees Were Raw
Feet Swollen-Sleep Broken
Cured In 2 Days by Cuticura.
"Somo two months ago I had a humor
break out on my limbs below my knees.
They came to look like raw beefsteak, all
red, and no one knows how they itched
and burned. They -were so swollen that I
could not get my shoed on for a week or
more. I used five or six different remedies
and got no help, only when applying them
the burning was worse and the itching les;i.
For two or three weeks the suffering was
intense and during that time I did not
sleep an hour at a time. Then one morn
ing I tried a bit cf Cuticura. From the
moment it touched me the itching was
gone and I have not felt a bit of it since.
The swelling went down and in two days I
had my shoes on end was about as usual.

Mrs. Norman R Barndt, of Allen

about Lydia E. Pinlcbam's Vegetable

for advice, following your directions
carefully, and thanks to you I am to
day a well woman, and I am telling
all my friends of my experience."
